Serbian is bidding to complete a 3-0 group campaign
Hamad Medjedovic put himself in a commanding position in the Red Group by winning his first two matches at the Next Gen ATP Finals presented by NEOM. He has now taken full advantage of his strong start by securing his semi-final place in Jeddah.
By winning a 4-2 second set against Abdullah Shelbayh on Thursday night, Medjedovic confirmed his place in the knockout rounds. The Serbian then claimed a 4-3(5) third set to eliminate Arab hope Shelbayh from semi-final contention and qualify Luca Van Assche.
With that, the semi-final stage is set in Jeddah. As winner of the Red Group, Medjedovic will face Dominic Stricker on Friday. Van Assche, the second-place finisher in the Red Group, will meet Green Group winner Arthur Fils.
